‘Highlight your strength’ This 98-year-old yogi is absolute GOALS

The next time you feel like bailing on your Yoga class, channel your inner Tao and remind yourself that if a 98-year-old can get her stretch on, so can you.

Tao Porcon-Lynch, the new star of Athleta's latest campaign, is taking the internet by storm right now as she draws on her own experience of positive thinking to encourage women to recognise their own strengths and potential.

The leisure and sportswear brand decided to use Tao, who began doing yoga at the tender age of 8 in India, as the face of their The Power of Positivity: Two Yogis, Stronger Together campaign, and it's safe to say we have a new hero.

Speaking to Shape magazine, Tao explains: "Aside from yoga, I love to be as active as possible. I do ballroom dancing when I’m not teaching yoga."

"I credit my active life, enjoying little luxuries I love, as well as my mindset, for my energy and happiness," she said.

Reminding us how important it is to approach the future with a positive attitude, Tao added: "What you put in your mind materialises, and I don’t put age and decay in my mind. I always look for the good and my next adventure."

Take a look at Tao in action.
